Star fish & eels

Submitted by admin on Sun, 2012-09-16 08:23

Q: Hazrat, I met you last year around July when I was in South Africa. I live in Australia. Hazrat, I teach in a  madrasa and run a fatwa website. The reason I am writing is that I wrote a fatwa on eating eels and later I found that my answer is contrary to your fatwa. Hence, I am writing so that you can let me know if my answer is correct or not. If it is not correct, then I will change it immediately. If it is correct then I hope to get khusoosi dua from you.
